Kerch peninsula

Many associate Crimea only with Yalta, and don’t even stop in Kerch, but just transit the city. Because not so many people know that Yalta is already 26 centuries old, thus, it is the oldest Russian city. The legendary and powerful Bosporian Kingdom was first settled here, at the intersection of trade routes, a very mysterious and sacral place. Even today, walking over the Mitridat Mount, you can easily come across an ancient archeological artifact. Visitcrimea.guide recommends to all the guests, coming here through the Kerch ferry, to pay their attention to the unique historical sights and the wonderful sandy beaches of the region.

Guests come to the Karalarsky nature reserve in the search of privacy and unspoiled nature. Between the Kurortnoye and Golden towns there is a favorite place of Crimea connoseurs - the beach of thousand bays or Generalskyie beaches. It offers 26 km of coves with sandy beaches and absolutely clear and warm water.

On the north, nearby Schelkino town, there is the Kazantip reserve, surrounded by Azov sea from all sides. Rocky coastline is interchanged with small cosy coves, fine sand and shallow bay attracts people with kids. Kazantip ishighly popular among active tourists, as they come here for doing kitesurfing. It doesn’t matter if you are an amateur or a real pro - there are professional clubs, where you can be taught, rent eqipment, and meet your like-minders.
